Great food and a store

Great food with a small store inside that has vegan substitutes, but also soap, shoes, bags etc. There wasn't a lot of place to sit, but it was very comfy. I had the rice paper roll which tasted very good, natural and refreshing.

Pros: Great food, Has a store

Cons: Not a lot of place

it's reopened!

I was so sad when I landed in Amsterdam and this little cafe was closed for renovations. But they just reopened and it looks great! It's light and airy. I stocked up for food on the plane and I had a delicious doughnut. Staff/owner were very friendly. I highly recommend.

Very chilled!

My partner and I went to Amsterdam, and both being vegan we thought it would be a good idea to find some vegan places and go! And Vegabond was by far our favourite place! We went to the Anne Frank Museum before and looked on HappyCow and found it was very very close! We both had one of they're sandwiches, cakes and other little bits! As it's a Vegan store as well we brought loads of stuff! Definitely worth going to! It's amazing!

Pros: Friendly, Relaxed , Amazing food

Cons: None

We came for dessert

Avant tout une épicerie proposant un grand nombre de produits vegan que l'on ne trouve pas partout. Des petits wraps salés et des pâtisseries absolument délicieuses à consommer sur place ou à emporter.

Pros: Épicerie de produits originaux, Charmante boutique, Délicieuses pâtisseries

Cute little cafe and well stocked store

I have a tasty sandwich here and then purchased some amazing donuts to take away. Then I came back a couple of days later for supplies. It's only a small place, but it's really well stocked and the options are good. It's also a great place to people watch as the cafe has a large glass window at the front.

Pros: Well stocked, Good Choice

Cons: Too quiet when not busy - music would help

Small but lots of choice

Small modern store full of all kinds of vegan food. They also have fresh cakes, wraps, juices, chocolates to eat there or to go. We had some brownies that were crazy good! The seating is very limited, so when we were there in a random afternoon it was completely full. Great place for more special vegan stuff.

Cons: limited seating

Cool spot

I was so happy to find Vegabond Store and Café during my short stay in Amsterdam. It was a quick Uber ride from the airport hotel I was staying in, got to run in and get a cute little sandwich wrap, awesome Hot chocolate, and a dessert for the road! Very small, cozy place, with some items for sale for home use, but unfortunately, nothing ready to eat that I could just take back to the hotel or take on the plane. That was a bit disappointing. So happy that they are there though! I bought a great little takeaway tote bag from there, that I've used a lot during my travels.

Pros: It exists!, cool vibe

Cons: No ready-made, takeaway meals

Well stocked store and cosy cafe

The store has loads of vegan treats and stuff for cooking which is handy.
The location of Vegabond is amazing, right in the centre and there's a lovely big window to sit and look out over the canal. The food and drink for the cafe is quite expensive, but the peanut smoothie is amazing and so are their cakes and sweet treats.
I didn't find the staff too friendly but I imagine they get a lot of tourists coming through so maybe it's understandable. It's still a nice place to sit for a quick drink and snack.

Pros: Central location

I will be back

I liked this little cafe and store a lot. There are good books, (many in English), on the shelves, and they have a good assortment of other vegan products that can sometimes be difficult to find. The cafe is small, with limited seating, but the food was delicious. I was informed, by the very nice woman behind the counter, that all of their vegan cheeses are made locally. I had a couple of sandwiches, with a couple of different varieties of cheeses, and they were delicious.

The best vegan brownie I've ever had

I popped into this shop for a vegan brownie and it was so good that I came back 2 more times for the vegan baked goods on offer during a long weekend in Amsterdam.

Nice, but Expensive!

We ordered 2 sandwiches, 2 bottles of water and a share bag of crisps and were pretty stunned when it came close to €30! The bread was delicious, in fact the whole sandwich was, but a bit small for the price.

Pros: Healthy, Tasty

Cons: Expensive, Small Portions, Cafe was a bit like a green house to sit in

Awesome little store/lunchroom

Went there for a quick bite with a friend and had a smoothie which I will never forget! Can't remember what it was called but it was green and it tasted like heaven! Best smoothie I've had and I make smoothies every day. Had a wrap and another snack which were also very tasty and then finished up with an extremely tasteful brownie. Bought a vegan chilli sauce and left super happy. Would recommend to anyone!

Pros: Vegan, Tasty, Healthy

Cons: N/A

Vegabond

This place was really good, had the unique sandwich that is only made here. It was two slices of bread with a spread and topped with lettuce and tomato. Had the donut dessert that was covered in icing and the donut itself had sugar dipped on it. It's a cozy place with indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely going back again.

Pros: Other vegan supplies, Friendly staff

Cute little vegan shop/café

I dropped in to Vegabond for some lunch after a visit to the nearby Anne Frank House. Vegabond isn't huge, but there is a nice little café space at the front, with a big window offering a view of the canal and the passersby. The menu includes sandwiches, wraps, teas, coffees, smoothies and desserts such as brownies, cupcakes and doughnuts. The shop is quite small but has lots of vegan snacks and other items.

For lunch I had a vegan salami and spicy mayonaise sandwich with a lemonade. The sandwich was open-faced, on hearty wholegrain bread and was delicious. It comes topped with salad and sprouts, which made it a bit difficult to eat without a knife and fork! The service was friendly and there was free wifi, which as a tourist I always appreciate! The sandwich was about €6, which wasn't too pricey. I also bought two doughnuts to take away.

Pros: All vegan, varied selection, not too "healthy", ha, Friendly service, free wifi, nice views, location

Cosy cafe

Just stopped there for a hot drink and sweet treats. I loved the hot chocolate with whipped cream... it was the first time I had whipped cream since going vegan, what a treat! The cupcakes and energy balls were delicious too.

The store sells loads of interesting food and other useful vegan friendly things (like bamboo toothbrushes, soap etc.).

Pros: Vegan whipped cream , Cosy

Cons: Small sitting space

Nice location in downtown Amsterdam

We just bought some cake varieties (raw & non-raw) and we were quiet satisfied. The shop is small but offers everything what you are looking for...

Pros: Located almost downtown, Variety of desserts and shop products

Perfect location one-stop shop for vegan traveller

I had an amazing vegan and gluten free lunch here - open vegan cheese and pine nut sandwich with red juice. I was also able to pick up some groceries at the same time, including gluten free beer (you don't know how happy this makes me). This is a great place for vegan travellers in Amsterdam, making it super easy for us to grab something to eat and do our shopping and freeing up time for us to do some sight seeing. Really nice relaxed atmosphere too.

Pros: Gluten free menu, Great atmosphere, Lovely people

Great food and layout

If you visit with a friend, I recommend the sharing platter to get a good variety of tasty dishes. The place is a little pricey but the food and atmosphere make up for a great experience.
